"I'll clarify the facts, as I was driving the boat. We were running in a calm cove, and at 99.7 mph, the boat hooked, and we were both ejected. And before anyone starts on the 'I don't own a Bullet because of this...Bullets aren't safe...something is wrong with the boat,' I'll clarify and say that I was running a case with a modified skeg, at an extremely high motor height, and I pushed the envelope. It was my fault, it was in the setup, and I fully raise my hand and take the blame, because that's whom it's on. We are both totally fine, other than being a little bumped up...and freezing cold. We were both wearing lifeline race vests and straps, and I had a helmet on. Killswitch was worn. Because of these pieces of safety equipment, we are both virtually unscathed. With that said, guys, please wear your safety equipment at all times; it can be the difference."
And then there was this video of a guy, presumably from Brazil, handling a rod like I've never seen anyone to date come close to duplicating...with a baitcast reel mounted on it.
